Scum patchnotes 28/9/2018

Hello prisoners! New SCUM patch is rolling out soon. Here are the new patchnotes for this week!

In case you get a problem of connecting to a server please keep in mind from the moment of patch deployment servers can take up to 60 minutes to updated!

Important update from the developers!
Hello guys, in this patch you will notice a bit less of bug fixes, optimizations etc.. We are starting to allocate people to work on the features you voted you want the most. That includes vehicles, fortifications, FOV changes and many more. We plan to update you WiP features on a weekly basis with screenshots and descriptions.

P.S The Golden DEagle event ends today. But everyone loved the golden DEagle so much, so we decide to keep in the game, yes that means you can find it BUT it's in the rarest category in the game (and for now the only item in that category). Good luck finding it!

Optimizations

Client optimizations
We made distant LODs for Factory, Prions, Refinery and Airfield. What does that mean is that when you are looking in that direction from a large distance you will see buildings and if you look through a scope you won't see people walking in the air anymore. Also that reduced render distance for high taxing models that will impact performance.

Refinery
